this episode of techno buffalos brought to you by Linda calm welcome back to their pursuit of asta Buffalo I'm your host Jon renders to show you could ask me any question you've got from the wide world of technology don't know what might be coming from google don't know what to make of all these apple iphone 5s rumors don't know what happened to the inside John's mind channel all these and more questions you will have answers to in just a few short minutes this is asked to Buffalo let's go ahead and get asking the first question comes from Larkhill who asked hey John what things are you most excited about for Google i/o so Google i/o has become really fun over the past few years we've seen huge product announcements we seen big ones like the Nexus 7 and some duds like the Nexus Q this year though I think we're gonna see a ton of awesome stuff come from google what I'm most excited about though is the next iteration of Android no more point updates we are going to see a fresh android 5.0 presumably going to be dubbed key lime pie I really respect what Google does every year you can rest assure there's going to be a new update to Android I don't always like all the new features but you'd like they're always constantly trying to innovate find new ways to make up and kiss them better bringing cool new features so I'm really excited to see what those next features are going to be and the rumor mills been relatively quiet on what key lime pie is going to have so that's why I'm the most excited about it there aren't too many times we get to go into a conference nowadays we don't know what's going to be announced and I'm hoping that it stays a twix I would still love some of that wonder to be dispensed on me at Google i/o and I of course be there bring you all the latest expect an update to the nexus 7 maybe the nexus 7 to maybe Nexus 7 squared maybe the next is 8 who knows fingers crossed for something to the Google glass so I'm super excited to try that out so if we had hoped aunt your question as our next question comes from the very awesomely last named Jeremy cougar Hayes who says hey John do you think phones are beginning to max out spec wise since we're already seeing 1080p screens high megapixel cameras and quad core process you think we have hit a plateau until something completely new comes around so that's the cool thing about competition say what you will about Apple or Android or whatever Android manufacturer Samsung HTC competition is great competition is perfect for you and me because it makes companies compete and put out better products megapixels are getting higher processors are getting higher I think we're really on the cusp of the next set of innovations we're hearing rumors that the next iPhone might have fingerprint scanning you've already seen that sort of on Android with the old atrix a brad something like that is going to become the new commonplace thing I think it's very cool to be at the time when new things are coming and not saying okay a new phones coming in love a little better camera have a little more ram a little faster processor and here you go it's pretty much same as last year's I do think the next generation of phones are coming very quickly and perhaps that will begin with Google's i/o or the next iPhone so fully that helped answer your question the next question comes from Ryan bulli who asks when will inside John's mind come back I've got an answer for you so inside John's mine is another channel that I started where I talked about stuff I did not do with technology things I was going on in my life well it's gonna be coming back very soon cuz I have a big announcement to make not right now I'm making it soon and I will be talking about all that stuff that goes with it over on the inside John's mind channel the next question comes from mg executors who asks AT&T is accepting HTC One pre-order starting April fourth should I go for the pre-order the reason why I'm asking that I have yet to see reviews of the samsung galaxy s4 the reason gevinson refuse Owens not Oh yet not even been out yet under embargo nobody's got one to review so I've had a chance to spend enough time in the galaxy s4 to really tell you I spent with it you know there's a few minutes at the announcement it's a great phone it was quick the screen was beautiful I was I definitely an evolution over the galaxy s3 so I can't put those two head-to-head for you just yet once i get them both in my hand certain i'll be able to help you but it will say right now I love the HTC One as I mentioned in my review it's a first phone since the iphone 4 that I would happily sign my name on a two-year contract for if you're really anxious to me want to get a new phone now I can unequivocally recommend the HTC One now the one caveat to that is if you have to have expandable storage then certainly the HTC one's knocking off of that or if you like to carry extra batteries and want a removable back you know then HTC one's not gonna offer that the expandable storage arguments that I totally get a lot of people rely on expandable storage the battery stuff that one doesn't really read make that much with me i always carry external battery charger with me when i travel anyway so i'm very easy just to you know plug that in and let it charge instead of carrying an extra battery that I have to find another way to charge so hopefully doped answer question so we thank our friends and sponsors at lynda.com if you can think about it you could probably learn it at lynda.com it's
